"For this production of Godspell (2012 revised version) simplicity of the setup was key to really highlight the rock feel of the show. Accessibility is always an important factor for me and I made sure everything was in close proximity and easily available.

The music for this production is one of my favorites thus far, it's very accessible and it just rocks! I can really let loose on some of the songs and keep things interesting.

This is my first show using The Miller Machine and I have to admit it's a total game changer. It's just one less thing I have to worry about. It's so easy to get a consistent triangle sound without fumbling around for a beater."

"Thursday, February 16th, 2017 was a special day. I was both excited and nervous as I stepped into SIR Studios in Manhattan to start the first orchestra rehearsal for the Broadway production of Miss Saigon."
"When preparing a percussion book for a new Broadway show, we occasionally get the music in advance. That allows us to start our “treasure hunt” early, to have the right sounds ready, and to get a jump on the setup. But often, Broadway is the first appearance of the fully orchestrated show, and we have seen very little before the first rehearsal."

"The musical experience of recording a Broadway cast album ranges from easy to difficult depending on the circumstances. I find that the two factors that contribute most to the quality of the experience are: 1) how good the band is; and 2) how soon after you started the show you record the album"
